With the artwork showing in MPFreaker, one can say that the artwork is definitely being put into the song files, so it's only a matter of discovering why your phone isn't finding the art. MPFreaker's artwork-adding behaviour adheres to the preference discussed here, and I realize that you have already tried changing this setting to "Proper specification format". Are you certain that you have then modified some songs again after changing to this setting, and copied those songs to your phone to test it?

If this isn't the particular issue, it probably is still a tag format issue. In iTunes, select a song which exhibits this problem and select "Get Info" from the File menu. In the Summary tab it'll show Kind (probably MPEG) and ID3 Tag. What Kind does it show for you? If MPEG, what ID3 Tag version?

If it is MPEG, it would be useful for you to try a different tag version to see if your phone likes it better. Just select your test song in iTunes, select "Convert ID3 Tags..." from the Advanced menu, and change the ID3 tag version to a different v2.x value.
